What you need to know about modern toilets

Modern toilets can be found in a variety of sizes, styles and colors. They can be sleek and slim or short and squat, and basically everything in between. This means that you can easily find one to fit your personal taste and style, along with your needs. Modern toilets can also come with several innovative features that can include everything from an added bidet to a warmer for the seat. If you are interested in purchasing a modern toilet but aren’t sure what to look for, here are a few tips I found helpful when I was shopping for mine.

Price

One of the first things you’ll want to consider is the price of the toilet, and this will vary. The size, design and manufacturer will all affect its price, along with any features it might come with. While you can find budget friendly modern toilets, you do want to make sure that you are not purchasing an inferior model. The last thing you want is for your new toilet to break and leak water all over your floor.

Design

When it comes to the design of the modern toilet it will depend on the size of your bathroom, and your own personal taste. You can literally find modern toilets in almost any color, including white and cream so you can easily match or contrast with your existing decor. The shape of the toilet can also vary, and you will want to take into account the size of your bathroom. If you have a small narrow space you probably don’t want to choose a wide square toilet, but a slim sleek model might fit your needs perfectly.

Modern toilets can also vary in height, and this should also be considered. If you or someone in your home has trouble standing up or sitting down you will probably want to choose one that sits a little higher.

Features

You might be surprised to learn that modern toilets can come with a variety of features, though this can affect its price. Some models come with a convenient bidet that can make you feel like you are living in luxury. The best toilets use less water without sacrificing flushing power will help you save money on monthly utility bills, while still being able to effectively prevent clogs. These models often come with dual flushing capabilities which allows you to choose how much water is used at a time.
